Perfect for Twirling Candy. Now he can actually win by going wire-to-wire.

Of course, if they try and strangle him back, expect a replay of the Big Cap.

Nothing like betting the pass line and don't pass line.

It's remarkable how overrated he has become. Not that he isn't a good horse, but the chances of him winning a competitive race at 1 1/4 are about zero.

Not that is saying all that much(it is 2011) but CLEARLY Twirling Candy is the fastest and classiest horse in training. He has already distinguished himself as capable of winning at Sprint distance beating arguably the best sprinter in the land save himself and 9f's

That's funny, for a lot of reasons, but mostly because he beat Smiling Tiger last year...you know, when he had already proven he wasn't the best sprinter in the land...
